I found the story very moving and real in a way I wasn't quite ready for. I wasn't sure if it was historical fiction or written by someone who had been there and the more I read, the more certain I was that Remarque had experienced this himself (he had). The first half seemed to bounch back and forth between the front line and the break the soldiers got between their turns at the front. The stark differences between the two were very well done and showed how brutal conditions were for those fighting. I thought Remarque wrote beautifully about the feelings Paul and his comrades had while fighting and I found it all very moving.
I am hontesly finding this hard to word myself. Maybe motsly as this book is not super engraving so I bearly rember wht I even read anymore. It was a god and pleasent quick read. But also it was super easy to forget for me.
